The Mobile Board of Adjustment met on August 4, 2025, at 4:00 PM to consider eleven applications for variances, special exceptions, and extensions. The board approved all items, with some subject to conditions, and granted one holdover. The meeting also included a report on pending litigation and approval of past meeting minutes.
All right, good afternoon, everyone. We're gonna call this August 4th 2025 Board of Adjustment Order. First, let me go over a few of the rules and basics of the meeting, and then uh then we'll get started. So, first of all, um I'd ask if you got electronic device that you put it on silent or off so that we don't have a disturbance and remind the board members to do so as well. Also, for the board members, remember to turn their mic on when they're uh making a statement or a motion. So as we call the agenda, each applicant will have an opportunity to speak for five minutes. Um we'll allow four people to speak in support of it, a request for variance, and then four to speak in opposition. If if you have more than four for either support or opposition, please pick your four so that we'll have those lined up and and you can come down and give us your name and address for the record and then your statement. Um then the applicant will get a two-minute opportunity for a rebuttal, and then we'll proceed with the final discussion of the board and deliberation and then a decision at that time. If you have any comments or statements, direct them to the board, not to others in the audience, not to the staff, unless we call for you to do so. I have the liberty based on questions and discussion to extend the time if I think it's necessary for our decision to be adequately covered. The um board will have a vote. If you got a question regarding our decision, you can call the planning department 251-208-5895, and uh we'll see. It takes five members to vote to affirm a motion or to deny could be just based on a failure to get a vote to approve. And with that, I'll call for roll call and then we'll get started with approval of the agenda. So starting with Mr. Metcalf, Mr. Golden? Yeah, Mr. Milling Absent, Mr. Carroll, yeah, Mr. Morris here, Ms. Farrell, Mr. Adison, yeah, Mr. Williams. Okay, absent. Um Mr. Addison is serving in a supernumerary position where he fills in, and uh based on the absence of Mr. Milling, we have a need for the supernumerary, so we'll proceed. And with that, we also have the quorum, so we can proceed based on having the adequate number of members present. So with that, Chair Call, and I'm William Guess, by the way. Uh Chair, call for approval of the agenda. Move for approval, Mr. Chair. I have a motion to approve the agenda. Do I have a second? Second. Have a second. Any further discussion? All those in favor say aye. Aye. Anyone opposed? Agenda is approved as presented. So we'll go in order based on our agenda. And the first item on the agenda is an extension for 6643, 6468 regarding 4519 Cypress Business Park. Is the applicant here? Okay, your name and address, sir. Yeah, let's turn your mic on. Um, it's it's up on the base. Yeah, we'll help you.
